About

Profile of the programme

The objective of the Aeronautical Engineering PhD Program is the training of highly qualified researchers in the field of Aeronautical Engineering, capable to develop autonomous work on fundamental or applied research, that can contribute to the extension of the frontiers of knowledge in this area and aimed either at the university or business environments

Key learning outcomes

At the end of the course, the student should be able to design, adapt and conduct scientific research autonomously. He should also be able to pass on this knowledge to others through presentations and scientific communications

Occupational profiles of graduates

Positions in academia, industry and commerce, where they can teach and / or develop new knowledge through research and technological development

Learning facilities

The DCA has a set of laboratories, complemented by a technical support office, a tool shop, a materials room and a specialized workshop where it is possible to build components and prototypes. FabLab is also available, where it is possible to manufacture advanced components for the development of prototypes, thus complementing the already existing capabilities in the Department.Laboratories:- Aerodynamics and Propulsion- Anemometry- Avionics and Control- Structures and Vibrations- Computational Fluid Mechanics- Materials- Research in TransportationEach DCA research group has its own current computing capability. This capability allows both the use of various commercial analysis and simulation programs and the development of software for specific applications.
